LIGHT FITTING DESIGN
PENDANT LIGHT
Light fixture one is a stunning contemporary lighting piece that will illuminate your interiors with style. It is made of a stainless-steel colander and gold spray paint. Its dome-shaped copper shade is beautifully juxtaposed with a black string to create an impressive visual for your space. With a diameter of 61cm, this alluring light fitting can provide ambient direct lighting for large spaces, a versatile and functional piece that is drenched in style. For soft as well as increased light, carbon filament or LED globes can be used. This light fixture is ideal for kitchens, bench lighting, hallways and dining areas.
​
Light fitting two, with its characteristic organic, triangular-shaped blades, is a modern classic that fits into every home. It is an appealing little suspension light with a diffuser composed of synthetic parts in a regular arrangement. It is made of white plastic dessert spoons and a recycled water bottle. The shape of the diffuser resembles a pinecone rounded at the top and pointed at the lower end. It allows light to travel and pass-through gaps and created a pattern, a downward focus point. The light fixture gives off glare-free light and is an interesting eye-catching lighting object due to the overlapping scales. Classic white, contemporary copper and warm brushed brass are only a few of the carefully selected colours that lighting fitting two is available in.
It also comes in two different sizes and will always light up your home no matter the colour.
​
Light fitting three, the bottle light pendant is a stunning lighting centrepiece that features a mixture of steel and glass to create a minimalistic look. Clear glass allows light to shine through. Can be arranged as a cluster pendant light chandelier. The compact suspension is sleek and contemporary. This is a clear water bottle that is been cut by hand, polished and wired for hanging as a pendant lamp. It is approximately 30cm tall once it is cut. The ceiling canopy is 12cm in diameter and can be finished in a variety of colours. The glass bottle pendant is ideal for lighting rooms throughout the house.
​
Light fitting four is a vintage pendant light fixture. Crafted with vintage spoons, this unique one bulb pendant is perfect in multiples over a kitchen island, cafe table, or dressing room. Six spoons have been tied together around a lighting fixture in the shape of a flower, or a shade, to evenly distribute the light. The lamp's best feature is the shadow play of the spoons on the ceiling and surrounding walls, helping you to get in the right mood before sitting down at the table.
